Yippee! It\u2019s a new day in Aspen\u2019s soon-to-be remodeled historic City Hall building, aka the Armory Building.<\/p>\n

Torre is mayor. Ann Mullins stays on council with Ward Hauenstein. Welcome back, Rachael Richards. Congratulations to Skippy Mesirow, the new young guy on council.<\/p>\n

Great things will be happening.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Bert Myrin and Adam Frisch \u2014 the old guys! Enjoy retirement.<\/p>\n

At 5 p.m. Monday, the current council will finally allow the public one chance and one chance only to comment on the minimum price tag of $45 million for new city offices on Galena Plaza\/Rio Grande, which will be done by certificates of participation.<\/p>\n

I am not sure why the city has not held any open houses on the financing question to explain to voters (whose tax money this is) why the financing question is not a question for the voters to decide on how they want to pay for their new city offices.<\/p>\n

There is a cheaper option, known as revenue bonds, to build new city offices with than certificates of participation.<\/p>\n
